SRAM's New Mountain Bike Wheels

Easily Convertible

6 / 7

Rise 60 hubs can be adapted to most axle configurations. The front accepts standard quick-releases or 15mm thru-axles. The rear can accommodate standard QRs or the newer 142x12 setups. The Rise 40 front hub is also convertible but the rear is not—it is available in either 135mm or 142x12 verions. SRAM also developed oversize front hub sidecaps that work specifically with RockShox forks, which they claim offers a better fit and increases stiffness by as much as 15 percent with a quick-release axle.
